Sarah Sanders, accompanied by her husband and three children, cast her ballot in Little Rock shortly after polls opened Tuesday. She is the daughter of former Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Former White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders speaks at a campaign stop at a Dairy Queen in Little Rock, Ark., Monday, May 2, 2022. Sanders is seeking the Republican nomination for governor in the Arkansas primary. LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Former White House press secretary Sarah Sanders won the Republican nomination for Arkansas governor on Tuesday after a campaign where she focused primarily on national issues and criticizing President Joe Biden.
“As governor, I will say no to Biden and the radical left’s agenda,” Sanders says in one of her TV ads. As Trump’s spokesperson, Sanders was the face of an administration that contributed to the nation’s stark divide. She’s running at a time that Republicans around the country are adopting the president’s rhetoric and approach on a number of issues, including immigration policy and the way race is taught in schools.
“I wasn’t born into politics,” Jones said in a recent TV ad. “My parents raised me to care about people.” Trump publicly encouraged Sanders to run for governor when she left the White House in 2019 to return to her home state. Before jumping into the governor’s race, Jones headed the Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, a nonprofit that helps entrepreneurs. He has dubbed his platform “PB&J,” which he says stands for preschool, broadband and jobs.
